I'm not sure I'm understanding well what you're proposing: the Once Only
Controller is used in order to log in only once that username? How does it
works?
In another subject, I'm willing to know how useful are all the HTTP request
self-generated, I mean, how important are those requests recorded by the
HTTP proxy server that are not a consequence of user action. I'm asking
this, because when I executed my test plan, I'd had 17k hits on the
webserver on two hours, because each request on the test plan is considered
as a hit, but when manually executing the same actions hits weren't more
than 15 (test plan has over 60 requests, like images and stuff, and I don't
know if those requests are really that important).
